Blogging from my heart in Boise, Idaho
Home Sweet Home. My tiny house in Garden City, a town that is surrounded by Boise. After being gone for a week back East, coming home was pure joy. It always is wonderful to arrive home, to be back again. Today it sank in even more as to that reason. The reason I chose Boise... Continue Reading →
At the end of the day last night, I settled in a comfy corner of the couch to catch up on the world. My corner became more and more uncomfortable once I read the Me Too posts on social media from friends, from women across the world. I feel that rather than coming out of... Continue Reading →
I cannot believe I did not take a picture of my squash muffins as they came out of the oven, golden brown, cheese melted, fragrant from the chives.

I don’t even know where and how and when to start this blog post. I had to say a bittersweet goodbye to my sweet dog, Zeke, this weekend. I had him just short of six years but those six years were full of smiles and laughter and f-u-n. I heard about a breeder that was... Continue Reading →
I don’t know about you, but the rancor in America is exhausting. Can we all please call a truce? This is my Wish List: Slow down when you drive. Better yet, how about driving the speed limit? Please try to remember that on ramp and that far right lane are for the zipper process. One... Continue Reading →
